Sustainability

The natural choice for a fire-retardant solution for wooden and other water absorbing materials.

Burnblock® has raised the bar offering naturally derived fire-retardant solutions for wood and natural fiber products. All materials used in Burnblock® can be found in nature (plants and animals).

Burnblock fire-retardant powder is designed with a focus on material health, ensuring that materials used are selected to prioritize the protection of human health and the environment. This goes for production, construction, in use and in re-use. By adhering to rigorous, science-based standards, we aim to generate a positive impact on the quality of materials available for future use and cycling. The fire-retardant is designed to biodegrade alongside the wood over time. As of such it is considered nonhazardous waste.

Third party documentation

We have asked third-party verifiers to provide independent assurance of the material health of our powder and to provide transparent information on the environmental impact of Burnblock fire-retardant powder.

Environmental Product Declaration

Our product has been enriched with an important certificate – EPD® (Environmental Product Declaration). Our EPD has the “cradle-to-gate” approach and thus covers the Product stage, meaning the environmental impact of raw materials, transport and manufacturing.

C2C Certified® Material Health

Our company has achieved C2C Certified® Material Health Gold level for all fire-retardant powders. The Cradle to Cradle Certified® Material Health Standard version 4.0 was used for our certified product.

100% of materials used in our fire-retardant powder are independently evaluated and considered compatible with human and environmental health.

C2C Certified Material Health Certificate is a trademark of the Cradle to Cradle Products Innovation Institute. Our certificate covers all Burnblock fire-retardant powders: JG30, MM50 and DM3.

Our value chain​

Burnblock® is typically involved very early in the value adding process: before or at the same time as the basic products are manufactured – and impregnated with Burnblock.

As Burnblock’s products primarily are impregnated in wood, the tree has been chosen also to illustrate the value chain, we are part of.
